Ok so I've been reading how nasty most of the flavors for Isopure are. My dr office recommended I use that(starting pre op liquid diet next week) but I was just wondering are there are any tolerable flavors worth trying. ?

My faves ate the ones that leave the least amount of aftertaste FOR ME. Those are the pineapple banana orange and the alpine punch. Those flavors are not liked by everyone, but they are the best FOR ME. Good luck! Leah (down 79 lbs since Oct 11)

I like the Grape Frost but not the Alpine punch. The Alpine upsets my stomach. I didn't like the green one either. I think it's apple something but, I know someone else posted on here they did like it. So, it's definitely a very individual thing. In the hospital they gave me a 8 oz bottle. I ordered several 6 packs online in that size. They're a perfect portion. 60 cals and 15 g of Protein.

You can get the large bottles at GNC and try them the different flavors.

I tried the peach one from GNC and I could barely get it to my lips to taste it because the smell was so bad. No one in my entire household would drink it, and I havent bought another one since :(

I guess ill have to go down to GNC or Vitamin Shoppe and get some samples. I wanted to go to costco and get premier shakes but the doctors office said "it doesnt matter what u use.. there is Isopure people use"..no help at all so im going by that ..just no chocolate or vanilla flavors for whatever reason?..if there's any other shake suggestions please let me know

I got the Syntrax nectar Roadside Lemonade mix. Once you mix it with Water (it does foam) you need to let it settle or pour it into another glass. I wonder why you can't do chocolate? I do the premier shakes for work as they are easy to transport and I do nectar at home. We have a place called Manna. It is a local shop and they mixed the different flavors of Nectar up for me to try. Most of my friends swore by the fuzzy navel. I hated it. LOL Taste is such an individual thing. Syntrax also now has Nectar Naturals with no artificial colors, sweetners, or flavors. There is fruit punch, peach and orange I think. I have not tried them yet, so I have no idea what they taste like, but if food dyes are a problem, they might be an answer for you.

I do know that unjury has a sample box you can buy at their on-line store for 21.00 - I think that is what I paid and I also think that Nectar has one as well, so maybe that is the way to go to get some variety and give them a try. You should be able to have chocolate after your surgery. Just a thought. I am allowed to have propel and fruit 2O Water as well so that has helped me out. Not in the Protein dept., but just in getting fluids in. Best of luck on your "hunt".

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
